This is the description file of the project. Here you will find tips for running the application also the architecture description. This project is a tech exercise example.
The project is a classic Maven Java Project. It uses some Spring libraries in order to have Dependency Injection, context support, unit testing (also with JUnit) and a very clear separation into the different application layers:
-
Service: This layer has all the operations the library provides. SuperSimpeStockService interface.
-
Persistence The layer that deals with storage. In this case we keep all the data in memory (HashMap and ArrayList) we use the interface SuperSimpleStockEntityManager for that purpose.
-
Model For the model we have the classes Stock and Trade. Both classes have the attributes and operations of each concept involved with the exercise.
It's not a webapp, only a library (JAR file). Because of the structure is easy to expose the functionallity with a SOAP or RESTFull webservice, also you can integrate as jar file with another projects.
In order to probe the required functionallity we have made one test class SuperSimpleStockServiceImplTest for testing purposes with the sample data generated for the exercise and all the required operations.
It has been run successfully with Apache Maven 3.1.1 and Java 1.7.0_60. You can run the project with the following maven command (inside the project directory):
$> mvn package
This command downloads the required libraries to build the project. Compiles the project, run the tests (where we probe the required features) and generates the JAR file under the target folder for integration purposes.
